This time it’s for a new traffic signal at the corner of Route 5 and Bayview Road.

Officials said the traffic light will make it easier for FedEx trucks and other vehicles to enter and exit the new industrial park being eyed by the shipping and logistics industry giant.

FedEx is considering building on 50 acres of the 129-acre park, with a final decision expected this spring. The company is offering to buy the land for $1.25 million and said as many as 600 jobs could be created if the project moves forward. The largely vacant land was once part of the sprawling Bethlehem Steel complex.

Does the project hinge on the signal? Probably not, but it’s symbolic of efforts to grow business locally and shows how serious officials are about bringing projects to fruition.

“The former Bethlehem Steel site has massive job-creating potential and a few key traffic pattern upgrades could be the final piece in the puzzle in attracting new companies, like FedEx, to relocate here,” said Sen. Charles Schumer.

He is pushing officials to expedite the signal approval. In some cases, it takes more than a year for regulatory agencies to review traffic signal requests.

Hamburg officials said they appreciate Schumer pushing state and federal agencies to move things along.
